Delay Analysis
Time impact, as-planned vs as-built, windows and collapsed-as-built analyses aligned to SCL Protocol and AACE 29R-03 recommendations.
Delay, disruption, and variation analysis with clear narratives and defensible records - helping you avoid escalation where possible and present a disciplined case when it is not.
Why early matters
“The records made in the first weeks of delay decide what's recoverable. By the time positions harden, the cheapest route through is usually the one already gone.”
Why it matters
Most claims are won or lost long before the legal team arrives. The records made during delivery - or not made - decide what's defensible. We build the position contemporaneously so the contractual story is intact when you need it.
Contemporaneous evidence captured while the work is live, not reconstructed under pressure once a dispute has formed.
Delay and disruption assessed using recognised methodologies (SCL Protocol, AACE 29R-03) - so the narrative survives independent review.
Where the facts support it, we settle. Where they don't, we present a case the other side can't ignore.
Capabilities
From early-warning notices through formal dispute, here's where we plug in - on live projects to keep entitlement intact, or after a position has crystallised to prepare the case.
Time impact, as-planned vs as-built, windows and collapsed-as-built analyses aligned to SCL Protocol and AACE 29R-03 recommendations.
Measured-mile, baseline-productivity and earned-value approaches to quantify lost productivity with defensible methodology.
Scope-of-change reconstruction, EOT entitlement, and quantification of associated time and cost impact.
Compliant notices, contemporaneous records and structured EOT and claim submissions prepared to the contract's requirements.
Independent expert reports, witness statements and support through adjudication, expert determination, arbitration and litigation.
Reviews of project records, governance and notice discipline - flagging entitlement and exposure while there's still time to act.
How we engage
We engage early on live projects to keep records defensible, or come in once a position has crystallised and prepare the case end-to-end.
We review the contract, the records and the narrative to determine what's actually defensible - and where the gaps are.
Contemporaneous records assembled and structured. Where records are missing, we identify the practical mitigation.
Delay and disruption analysis run, quantum modelled, and the submission packaged to the contract's notice and form requirements.
From negotiation through formal dispute - we support project leadership, in-house legal and external counsel with the facts and the methodology.
